  1. Tier II and III Systems of Support: Building a Complete Continuum Tim Lewis, Ph.D. University of Missouri OSEP Center on Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports

  2. Tier II (III) Process

  3. Teams(Data, Practices, Systems) • School-wide PBS • Universals • Connect points to Tier II & III • Tier II (III) (e.g., CARE, SAT, TAT) • Data Decision Rules • Match intervention to need • Classroom Problem Solving • Review data • Develop function-based interventions

  4. Basic Steps • School-wide, including classroom, universals in place • Identify students who need additional supports • Identify what supports student needs • Environment • Intervention • Monitor & evaluate progress

  5. Starting Point • Work within current formal and informal systems • Develop missing steps of efficient process • Provide training and technical assistance to facilitators • Classroom Problem Solving Teams (partnership) • Tier II Team • Guided process with templates for environmental modifications and interventions • Goal = fluency among all faculty and staff

  6. SAT Process Teacher Training and Support Targeted Interventions Individual Student Plans SAT Team Administrator Counselor Behavior Specialist STAT Team Core Team/Classrooms Implement AIS Monitor Progress Refer to SAT Core Team Representative SAT Partner Core Team Teachers *Meets Weekly RRKS Team School-Wide Systems Matrix Lesson Plans School-Wide Data Acknowledgement Communication Core Team Representative District PBS Support Building Administrator and Counselors *Meets Monthly

  7. Tier II/III Support Process • Step 1 – Insure Universals, including Classroom, in place • Step 2 – Student Identification Process • Decision Rules • Referral • Screen • Step 3 – Classroom Problem Solving • Classroom supports (function-based) • Progress monitor • Step 4 - Tier II/III supports • Non-responders to grade level supports • Match function of student behavior to intervention • Progress monitor • Step 5 - Evaluate Process

  8. 1. Classroom Universals in place • Review of essential feature • Implementation Plan

  9. Essential • Classroom expectations & rules defined and taught (all use school-wide, create classroom examples) • Procedures & routines defined and taught • Continuum of strategies to acknowledge appropriate behavior in place and used with high frequency (4:1) • Continuum of strategies to respond to inappropriate behavior in place and used per established school-wide procedure • Students are actively supervised (pre-corrects and positive feedback) • Students are given multiple opportunities to respond (OTR) to promote high rates of academic engagement • Activity sequence promotes optimal instruction time and student engaged time • Instruction is differentiated based on student need

  10. Systems Teach Brief in-service, single topic focus Practice (performance feedback) Peer coaching Principal “walk throughs”

  11. Baseline Behavior Data Spring 2008 57 students with 9+ Referrals 6+ Referrals 2-5 Referrals 0-1 Referral 1712 referrals

  12. Current Behavior Data 2010-2011 16 Students with 9+ Referrals 6+ Referrals 2-5 Referrals 0-1 Referrals 516 Referrals

  13. 2.Identifying students • Current data • Confidence in numbers • Consistency across data points • Teacher Referral • Screening Approximately 10% of total students

  14. Data Decision Rules • Office Discipline Referral (ODR) • Major • Minor • Time out of Instruction • Buddy Room • Safe Seats • “Discipline” Room

  15. RRKS TOC (front side) RRKS – Time Out of ClassCode: _____ Student: _________________________ Date:______________________ Incident Time: ____________________# of min. out of rm.: __________ Teacher: _______________________Subject: ____________________ What did you do/not do that got you sent out of class? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Circle the RRKS expectation that was not followed: Respect Responsible Kind Safe What will you do differently next time?______________________________________

  16. RRKS TOC (back side) • Processing Checklist: • Processing data & time: • Review with the student reason he/she was sent out. • Teach & practice replacement behavior. • Provide positive reinforcement for replacement behavior. • Check the setting in which the behavior occurred. Minor List: Circle the appropriate code

  17. Other Strategies to Identify Students • Teacher Referral • Questions to discuss: • Who completes • When • What data must be used/cited • Focus on externalizing and internalizing • Screening • What instrument • Schedule

  18. 3. Tier II Supports • Students who do not respond to classroom / informal supports (grade level 2-3 weeks) • Student brought to Tier II Team • Classroom problem solving plan • Progress data • Based on function of problem behavior and response to classroom supports, match student to Tier II intervention

  19. Tier II Supports • Centralized • Each has a coordinator • Placed in support by Tier II Team • Classroom supports continued / modified • ALL in building aware of their role in supporting students in Tier II Supports

  20. Tier II Supports • Check in / Check Out • Social Skill Groups • Academic Supports

  21. 4. Monitor Student Progress and Evaluate Process • Original data sources that lead to student identification • ODR • Attendance • Academics • “time out of class” • Teacher perception • Key = frequent and regular • Celebrate success • Adjust if student doesn’t respond (or problems start reappearing) • Cost –Benefit Analysis of overall process

  22. Tools To Assist • Identify Progress Monitoring Tool • Tier I • Team Implementation Checklist • Benchmarks of Quality • School-wide Evaluation Tool • School Assessment Survey • SWIS • Tier II/III • CICO Progress Monitoring Tool • Benchmark for Advance Tiers (BAT) • Individual Student Systems Evaluation Tool (ISSET)

  23. Benchmarks for Advanced Tiers(BAT) http://pbismissouri.org/archives/2641

  24. Benchmarks for Advanced Tiers (BAT) • Allows teams to self-assess implementation status of Tier 2 & Tier 3 behavior support systems within their school.

  25. Benchmarks for Advanced Tiers (BAT) • Designed to answer 3 questions: • Are foundational (organizational) elements for implementing Tier 2 & Tier 3 behavior support practices in place? • Is a Tier 2 support system in place? • Is a Tier 3 support system in place?

  26. Instructions for Completing BAT • Who: The team(s) or individuals involved with Tiers 2 and 3 behavior support • Before starting the first administration, read through the items to determine who on campus will be likely to have knowledge of the topic(s). • If there is not currently a team in place, the BAT should be completed by individuals with the most knowledge and involvement in supports at Tier 2 and Tier 3.

  27. Instructions for Completing BAT How: As a group or each member independently. • Team (or individuals involved with Tiers 2 and 3 behavior support) must reach consensus on the score for each item. • If completed independently, the team reconvenes to review scores on each item. • As a beginning Tier 2 team complete only sections A – G

  28. Instructions for Completing BAT Scoring: After reviewing the rubric for each item, select the score that most closely matches the current level of implementation at the school • Rate each item as … • “2” fully in place, • “1” partially in place, or • “0” not yet started.

  29. Using the BAT Results • The BAT assesses progress over time, as scores on each area can be tracked on a year-to-year basis. • School teams should use the BAT to build an action plan that defines next steps in the implementation process.
